Description: Untitled DocumentStoreFeedbackFollow UsButterfly Milkweedis a variety of milkweed that is native to much of the United States. This perennial wildflower grows to about 1 to 3 feet tall, depending on environmental conditions. Butterfly Milkweed can be found growing in dry areas such as open fields, roadsides, farmland, wooded areas, and prairies. It displays long-lasting clusters of bright orange flowers on hairy stems that are a light green to a dull reddish-purple and can branch off at the top allowing for multiple flower heads. New plants can sprout from underground root rhizomes, or from seeds that shed from the long seed pods in the fall. Allow plants to self-seed in the landscape if desired or remove seed pods before they split open in the fall. These low-maintenance plants perform well on dry sites that have clay, sand, loam or average soils and are drought tolerant once established. Butterfly Milkweed is also deer resistant.
